Very disappointing experience at Baker St Cafe. We ordered chicken pad Thai and basil fried rice with chicken, along with two Thai iced tea, which ended up being $45 not including tip.
Wait time for food was 30 minutes. Food quality was very poor. The peas appeared to have been previously dried and were not properly reconstituted, and the chicken also seemed dry and premade (perhaps frozen previously cooked chicken?). The fried rice was mushy and flavorless. The pad Thai was covered in an overly sweet sauce. Absolutely not worth the $16+ per entree. I thought the Thai iced tea was ok but I doubt it was anything but a premade powder.
We went on a Sunday afternoon and two children (around ages 9 or 10 years old) were helping take orders and performing tasks in the back room. These children are far too young to be spending a Sunday afternoon, during a winter school break, working at a restaurant.
We will not be supporting this business again for ethical and food...
Read moreThis is the cutest little cafe in the whole wide world! They serve the best most fresh Thai food, and it is home cooked and absolutely delicious. I continue to come back to this little cafe because of the wonderful service and cute kids that served us the first time. They're pineapple fried rice is amazing, the steak and sticky rice is equally phenomenal and as well as their chicken soup and I am going to go back as many times it takes to try everything on the menu! The family that owns the Baker Street Cafe is lovely and every interaction that we've had is amazing! The pricing is stellar and the place is just adorable and warm from the moment you walk in. They have amazing customer service and the most delicious food in town! I cannot recommend them enough but if you are looking for a fresh meal that makes you feel like your home, then the Baker Street Cafe is a place you have to go! I am such...
Read moreMy husband and I visited McMinnville for the first time yesterday and I was really hungry when we arrived. I found this delightful cafe when I searched for best food in McMinnville, and it did not disappoint. We were greeted by one of the owners´ sons (they have a second one who is also working there). It seriously was the best, and most charming, customer service I have had in a long time! I told the boys later that I totally would hire them--they knew the menu inside and out, knew what questions to ask, and were so friendly and polite. Their parents are teaching them very well--and they looked like they were having fun as well. The food was delicious--we had taro and strawberry milk teas, potstickers, yellow curry (on recommendation from the son), and noodles in Thai peanut sauce. So yummy! We will definitely be back again and will tell our friends. Keep up...
